Reading Sunday! This week I'm reading Time Loops & Meet Cutes, Nine Pints, Automatic Noodle, and In the Garden of Iden. I may also try to finish Hirayasumi vol 1 and make more progress with I Just Wish I Had a Bigger Kitchen and A Walk in the Woods, as mood directs.

I'm starting to see multiple threads where bluesky folks are trying to raise money for their local food banks because of the shutdown of SNAP starting November 1... can we get a thread going for people to find each other? Drop your link and put your city in front, let's coordinate city by city!

If you're a writer/other creator in the United States, consider creating an LLC for your business and then signing up for a local area Chamber of Commerce. Many of them have health insurance plans that pool their members and members of other CoCs to create insurance efficiencies relative to ACA.

Reading Sunday! (A little late because I forgot to actually push post yesterday, eep.) This week I'm reading For Whom the Belle Tolls and Hirayasumi vol 1. I was reading The Hot Zone but my audiobook kept having issues where it got stuck, so that's currently on pause.

One reason I truly do not understand how people go around unmasked during a pandemic is because you can have COVID & have no symptoms at all & still spread it. Or spread it before symptoms show up.
You don’t want to be someone who is spreading a virus that can do serious harm to people. Nope.

Reading Sunday! This week I'm reading Braiding Sweetgrass, Kinky History, Wild, and maybe one of the sidelined fiction books I haven't picked up in a couple weeks.
If I finish one of my nonfiction books, I'll probably start Vaccinated or Delay Deny Defend. Or something else, who knows, haha.
